Death
What to do in the event of a death
If an employee dies, the survivors and beneficiaries receive a pension and/or a lump-sum death benefit, depending on the pension plan in your contract.
Please notify us of the death of an employee with the Notification of death form. As soon as we have received your notification, we will contact the survivors and take care of all further arrangements.
